Attic Entry and Home Damages

Squirrels are common animals to see in areas of human habitation. Residential properties are attractive to them because they see trees as a source of both food and shelter. They are also an animal that is known to hibernate, and they will make their way into the attic of a home for a safe place to spend the winter.

They can cause quite a bit of damage throughout a yard and in an attic. They can litter a yard with holes as they bury or dig up nuts and seeds they have stored in the yard. Electrical wires are no match for their teeth and they can cause a fire hazard when they chew through them no one will know about until a fire happens. Gardens are also a place that they will destroy as they dig up the plants in their search for food. See more on squirrel removal North Canton.

Habitat

These animals require the presence of trees, but different species will prefer a different make-up for their preferred woodlands. For example, eastern gray squirrels like forests where they can travel near the canopy from tree to tree without having to go to the ground. Fox squirrels, on the other hand, prefer forested areas where the trees are a little more spaced out and open.

Their diet consists of nuts, seeds, flowers, fungi, and other plants. They are native to regions from southcentral Canada, throughout the United States and into northeastern Mexico. Some species have been introduced to European countries, like the United Kingdom and Ireland, where they are considered to be invasive species.
